Verdict
Looksnowtlikebrian is the only one of these with any recent worthwhile form but he has to carry top weight. EARLS FORT ran a shocker when favourite at Cartmel last time but that course doesn't suit everyone and Neil Mulholland's gelding, who has hinted at ability, is probably worth another chance in a race that won’t take much winning. Tyre Hill could also figure if fully wound-up but Generous Helpings doesn't have a particularly progressive profile.
